Parenting teenagers untangled. 🏆 The audio hug for parents of teens and tweens. 43: Social media, and how to help your teens be their best selves online, with Natasha Devon MBE
What do you think of this episode? Do you have any topics you'd like me to cover?
An interview with Natasha Devon MBE: We parents often struggle with our fears about how to protect our teens when they're online. So when I received Natasha’s book written for teenagers, 'Clicks; How to be Your Best Self Online', I read it cover to cover.
It's a great book to give your teens to help them navigate their online world in a way that's genuinely positive, because it covers things like avoiding tech addiction, swerving fake news, who to follow, online safety, and how to put your best self forward online.
What I thought might be particularly useful for us parents was the Tips and Tricks section at the back. I'm going to use each heading to bring up discussions at the dinner table so that we can have informed conversations about the issues involved.
